O.P. Firefox and dragging objects to quick reply area.
When i drag an image or something to the quick reply area it enters the url of that object twice but not once.

Like if i see the image of a smiley on the same page. And i drag it onto the quick reply box, it pastes the url twice.

why doesnt it just do it once??

I can confirm this behaviour. Looks like some insecticide is needed.

With IE you can't drag images into the quick reply box :grin:, only text.

It's because there is no alt for the images when you drag an image into a textbox it copy's the url and the ALT atribute of the image but as you see on the forums theres not an ALT atribute for avatars so firefox supliments that with the url.

just try it on the attached page
